I worked on the Nest HomeHub devices and the push to completely rewrite an already shipped product from web/HTML/Chromecast to Flutter/Fuchsia was one of the most insane pointless wastes of money and goodwill I've seen in my career. The fuchsia teams were allowed to grow to seemingly infinite headcount and make delivery promises they could not possibly satisfy -- miss them and then continue with new promises to miss --while the existing software stack was left to basically rot, and disrespected. Eventually they just killed the whole product line so what was the point?

It was exactly the model of how not to do large scale software development.

Fuchsia the actual software looks very cool. Too bad it was Google doing it.
